FBI on scene of ICE-involved shooting in Patterson, California

Source: ABC News

The FBI is at the scene of an Immigration and Customs Enforcement-involved shooting that happened in Patterson, California, on Tuesday near the I-5, Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons said in a statement.

According to Lyons, ICE officers were attempting to arrest a man they claimed was an 18th Street gang member when he “weaponized his vehicle” and attempted to run over an officer.

Lyons claimed that the suspect is wanted in El Salvador for questioning in connection with a murder.

“Following their training, our officers fired defensive shots to protect themselves, their fellow agents and the public,” Lyons said.

Unlike their cruel, depraved refusal to let a doctor approach Renee. Not that one should need to be grateful for such basic human decency. I hope he survives, and that we get to hear more about this.

From LA Times in 2014: Agents were trained to deliberately step in the path of cars to justify shooting at the drivers...according to an independent review of 67 cases that resulted in 19 deaths.
